A bird lover's paradise, this park is listed as site #46 on the Alabama Coastal Birding Trail. It is located in the Alabama Port community about a mile north of the Dauphin Island Bridge. Many species of local and migratory birds visit this park in the spring and fall to take advantage of its fresh water and to shelter themselves among the trees and reeds. Pelicans are ever-present, soaring on the wind-wave formed as bay breezes blow up against and over dense stands of pines. Herons, egrets, osprey, gulls, and terns stalk the shoreline while bluebirds, killdeer, red-wing blackbirds, woodpeckers, kingfishers, and other locals live among the reeds, trees, and artificial nesting boxes.
